You basically only have to open the deb file as an archive and get out the ...amdvlk64.so and the json file, and install them for your OS like on the AMDVLK github page described. AMDGPU-PRO tho will overwrite the AMDVLK and its often older than AMDVLK or the same as it, but sometimes you can try, if neither RADV nor AMDVLK are working.

For anyone trying amdvlk and wondering why there is tearing in fullscreen even with vsync enabled, you need to set a undocumented config option to get rid of it:
In an Xorg session, try out any application which is suitable to spot tearing (e.g. vkquake, set host_maxfps to a value well above display refreshrate) and enable vsync in it. There is a small stri...

Benchmark results are stored in *.txt files at 'steamapps/compatdata/312670/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/StrangeBrigade_Benchmark' path. This game also support multi-GPU under Vulkan, however I don't know if this feature work in Proton. I use AMDVLK in Strange Brigade, because RADV has problems with tesselation.
BTW. If you will want to play this game and not just benchmark it, you can rename 'StrangeBrigade_Vulkan.exe' to 'StrangeBrigade.exe' at 'bin' path, because game launcher is black in the latest Proton version, however this is not required for benchmarking.Michael Larabel
